Their forthcoming 8-track album, “RESTORATION,” set to drop on February 2, 2024, is a testament to their unwavering dedication to crafting music that resonates with the soul and propels the human spirit toward a transcendental zenith.
The brainchild of the dynamic duo, Odell and Karan Staggers, The Staggs Renaissance Group transcends conventional gospel boundaries, wielding a mission to revive the artistic realm across genres.

“RESTORATION,” meticulously helmed by the collective, unveils the creative prowess of Odell and Karan Staggers. Odell, an educator, author, songwriter, and artist, and Karan, a nurse practitioner, screenwriter, and playwright, personify the notion of worship as an expression of gratitude for the gifts bestowed upon humanity.
A preview into the album reveals that “RESTORATION” is a collection of soul-stirring anthems and soaring vocals. It’s a spiritual sojourn beckoning listeners to immerse themselves in divine communion. With tracks like “WORSHIP YOU,” “LOOK AT ME NOW,” “YOU ALONE,” “I CAN,” “DON’T TAKE,” “JESUS,” “GREATER,” and “REMEMBER ME,” each song serves as a fervent call to embrace the innate purpose of praising the divine through naturally bestowed gifts.
